The SRK (Survival Rescue Knife) from Cold Steel is a versatile knife that is able to withstand the most extreme abuse. This model has an upgraded CPM-3V steel blade with a stonewashed finish. It features a tremendously strong clip point thats fine enough for delicate work, yet possesses enough belly for efficient cutting, slashing and skinning strokes as well. At 3/16 of an inch thick, the Survival Rescue Knife offers the sturdiest possible point and edge configuration, without sacrificing sharpness. The SRKs handle sports a single quillion finger guard and a deeply checkered Kraton grip. Includes a Secure-Ex sheath.
The knife shown here is actually for model 38CKD and not 38 CKC as described. The CKC model is the one with black DLC coating and the blade is made in the USA and assembled in Taiwan. I bought this thinking perhaps you had the wrong photo and description with the model CKC. But what was sent to me was the 38CKD, stonewashed version. I decided to keep it since the CKC is tough to find at this time.
